Microlife WatchBP Office Ankle Arm Index (ABI) office blood pressure monitor

The Microlife® WatchBP Office ABI is a clinically validated professional blood pressure monitor for use in doctors' practices, hospitals or other healthcare institutions. The big difference with Microlife WatchBP Office AFIB is that the Office ABI can not only measure both arms simultaneously, but also both the ankle and the arm. This makes it easy and accurate to determine the ankle-brachial index. The ankle-brachial index can be used to determine whether someone has narrowing in the arteries of the legs.

Simultaneous measurements on both the left and right arms are recommended by the ESH guidelines for an initial consultation. This allows the inter-arm difference (IAD) to be determined. This makes it possible to determine which arm is best for measurements and to determine whether there are obstructive abnormalities in the arteries. If there is a difference of more than 10mmHg between the left and right arms, you should always measure the blood pressure on the arm with the highest blood pressure during follow-up consultations.

The Microlife WatchBP Office ABI also uses AFib technology, which can detect atrial fibrillation at an early stage. In addition, the blood pressure monitor can also automatically take multiple measurements in succession, which increases the accuracy of the measurements.

The blood pressure monitor is also easy to use thanks to the one-button operation. The display is large and clear, on which the measured blood pressure values ​​(for both arms or arm and ankle) are clearly visible. The blood pressure monitor can also be connected to a PC with the supplied USB cable or via Bluetooth. The measured values ​​can be analyzed using the free Microlife WatchBP software.

The Microlife WatchBP Office ABI is a clinically validated professional blood pressure monitor. It has been validated not only for the general population, but also for pregnant women with or without pre-eclampsia, children over 3 years of age, patients with diabetes, kidney disease and obesity. It is recommended to always measure with a clinically validated blood pressure monitor.

The blood pressure monitor has 3 different measuring options. These are “ABI”, “Screen” and “Routine”:
• The “ABI mode” is a single measurement specifically for determining the ankle-brachial index.
• The “Routine mode” is ideal for all subsequent patient visits. In this mode a 3x measurement is performed on one arm.
• The “Screen mode” is ideal for a first consultation. A triple blood pressure measurement is then taken simultaneously on both arms.

In addition to the adapter, a USB cable is also included and 5 cuffs, namely 2x cuff size M (22-32cm), 2x cuff size L (32-42cm) for the most common arm circumferences and an ankle cuff size M (22-32cm).
